I know I’ve complained to you all about my post-surgical neck problems. And I think I may have mentioned that the surgeons must have nicked or dislodged my trigeminal nerve that has been giving me a hard time with “trigeminal nerve neuralgia”, though it is slowly improving. Before I went to the Physicians Assistant for …
It must have been my first business trip to Paris with my friend and colleague, Mary Ellen, when I first bought a bottle of Guerlain’s L’Heure Bleue. If I remember correctly, I may have even purchased it at the Guerlain store on the Champs Elysee. I remember talking to a saleswoman about L’Heure Bleue or …

I keep letting you know about big sales at Viseart (I hope it’s not too much), but I remember when I first started buying the wonderful pro-style makeup brand from Paris, an eyeshadow palette was $80. The company must have been sold because sales are more prevalent, but still a big sale up to 60% …
Not too long ago, I was complaining to Jeff about my jaw that still hurts after my surgery in March. I have trigeminal nerve neuralgia which means my jaw is both numb and sore, my nerves hurt intermittently and feel like a quick electric shock, and my swallowing is off. Jeff reassured me that with …
During the Sephora sale (during which I ended up buying nothing), I discovered new K18 Biomimetic Hairscience Leave-in Molecular Repair Hair Mask. That name is a mouthful. The owner of K18 Biomimetic Hairscience is Aquis, the manufacturer of the fabulous hair towels. I’ve had my Aquis turban for about 10 years and my Aquis towel …
A years or so ago, I received several of Paula’s Choice new boosters. They came in a variety of actives – Peptides, Niacinamide and Vitamin C – or at least those were the three I received. I liked and frankly still like all of them. Not long ago, I received a hot pink box from …

In my March Ipsy bag, I received a full size bottle of BYOMA Moisturizing Rich Cream. Because March was such a busy month for me, I forgot all about the moisturizer. I forgot that I got it from Ipsy. But a couple of weeks ago, I saw it in my stash, was intrigued by the …

Although I already have two diffusers and a number of essential oils from a variety of brands, I am very grateful for her thoughtful gift. Guru Nanda Honeycomb Ultrasonic Diffuser When it comes to essential oils and diffusers, Guru Nanda (that …
Today, I spent 5.5 hours working in my gardens. I seriously cut back two 21 year old azaleas that were blocking my dining room windows. I also decided they needed to be cut back because I had a tree company in the autumn cut down two very overgrown shrubs, and I realized that the azaleas …
Earrings are my downfall. I have two pairs of earrings that I wear everyday: But I love to have new ones that I can swap into my non-everyday rotation. When Chan Luu has a sale, I always take a look. Moonstone & Pearl Ostra Earrings The Moonstone & Pearl Ostra Earrings caught my eye because …
